Episode Synopsis

We recently spent the day at one of our favorite annual events: 417 Biz presents Ladies Who Launch. We felt compelled by the message we received to share our takeaways from the day with all of our listeners. Even if you don’t know about the event or don’t live in 417 land, there is still a lot of value for you here. The general theme was “Embrace Your Journey”. 417 Magazine Editor Logan Aguirre kicked the event off by talking about her own challenges with feeling “stuck”. We all feel stuck sometimes and it can be challenging to find your way through to the beauty that lies beyond the breakthrough. The first step is figuring out where you want to go. Once you’ve figured out the where, then you can take small steps to find your way. Little wins every day can give you the fuel you need to get to the finish line. The line up of speakers for the day included Christina Ford, Founder of The Rebound Foundation. Her story is one of overcoming challenges brought on by poor decisions. However, her belief in herself and giving herself room to get in the right space propelled her to find love and happiness. You don’t have to be stuck in the cycle you’ve been in. Your upbringing doesn’t have to define you. You can fight for better. It just takes determination and the drive to persevere. Another guest speaker that really touched all the attendees was Mallory Brown. Mallory is a journalist on a marathon journey to interview 26 individuals from different walks of life and different cultures. What she has learned so far is that the human spirit is remarkable. These people have come back from devastating tragedies. Persevered under the most unrelenting conditions. Their stories are remarkable and you are going to get to hear them directly from her. Mallory will be our guest in September. The day was filled with story, enthusiasm, networking, lots of laughs and a few tears.
